Random Table Of Black Hole worlds

There have
been a few instances in the last little while that I’ve thought “you know what
would be cool? A black hole portal”.
Whilst planning my Mutant Future campaign, I had a discussion with one
of my players regarding the Cern supercollider.
The possibility of a catastrophic event opening up black holes, is
actually a bit more fact than fiction (at least for the purposes of this
blog). This topped off with the fact
that I’ve considered creating a Classic Traveller campaign where the players
visit worlds, or fall thru blackholes into different realms. For example they start off in a mutant future
campaign, travel thru a black hole and wind up on a space ship, only to realize
that they are in fact members of the imperium on a trade mission. And then at some point they wander thru
another blackhole and viola greyhawk campaign.
All the while they are mildy aware that they are in fact spacemen &
women.

The other
idea I had, IF our 5e group ever gets me to DM again and we finish the starter
set. They travel into some caverns, and
at some point they have a cross roads leading in 3 different directions. When the players walk thru one of these they
are magically transported to another world that needs heroes much more than the
current world (damn you FR, we are going to the Known world).

Sounds
crazy, its role playing whatever.
